710ml can on 28th January 2022. My wife and son-in-law both had a mini glass full, I a full pint. Orange bodied, weak topping that soon disappeared. Sweet mango initial taste and aroma, the chili kicked in soon after. Almost enjoyed it!

At first it's not too bad. We're almost of mango and a hint of salt. With the first sip you pick up mango and salt again but then right away you get this weird furniture polish quality. A pity because I can't quite get past that. Into the drain it goes.

Why do I even like cheladas, I don't even know. Well I haven't loved all the Modelo versions, I like making my own at home, but whatever. Here's this one. Really ugly appearance, no head, cloudy reddish orange, uneven distribution of opacity. Nose is mostly mango, a little tomato juice. This is a tad sweet, mango flavors dominating, but the saltiness is apparent and balances, with a linger saltiness on the tongue. Very faint chili. Gets a little tart at finish, maybe from the mango, if I could change anything it would be to tame that bit a little. Lingering burning sensation is either acid or chili, unsure, but it hints at vomit. I find the salty beery medium mouthfeel to be quite pleasing. Despite the vomit reference I'm rather enjoying this one. Why do I like this I still can't say.

Mango, salt, chile pepper, malt, and straw aroma. Hazy golden yellow with moderate but short-lasting head. Moderately sweet mango, chile pepper, malt, light salt, and lightly bitter straw flavor. Good body - light burn in the finish. Pretty good - would drink this before a Rita any day of the week.

24 oz. Aroma is mango, black pepper, tomato, floral. Pours hazy orange with a quickly collapsing off-white head--no trace of foam whatsoever after a minute or so. Taste is moderately tart, lightly sweet, with a light chili pepper spiciness. Lots of mango flavor. Tastes pretty good to me, but I love cheladas. It's not as good as the original or the lime one, though.
